Six Charlies In Search Of An Author
Manage episode 436591200 series 3347757
Sean Gaffney returns to talk about a favourite Goon Show episode from 1956 - Six Charlies In Search Of An Author, loosely based on a play by Fred Pirandello.
Was it a cry for help from Spike? A thinly-veiled portrait of a man whose life was beset by the weekly demand for a funny script, pouring scorn and contempt upon the very characters he created? Or was it just a neat idea for a particularly shambolic (and funny) episode?
We shall see.
Plus: an AI-generated 80,000-word examination of Series 7 of The Goon Show which leaves a LOT to be desired!
